Hi Mark, currently got a leaking rear axle FFS! A flat tyre that needs sorting, then I can get going on it!

I've been close to sending my new EOS back - I couldn't get a decent image from it. A bit of research shows that digital SLRs don't do nearly as much in-camera sharpening (none in RAW mode) and thus all images come 'soft' as standard until you do a bit of photoshop on them.

et voila - suddenly it all comes to life!

I had one of the EOS300's last year, I didnt like it too much so sent it back, the D70 is superb in every way now it's got £100 cash back too!

Let's not have a Canon vs Nikon thread - there's enough of those on the photo newsgroups! I skipped the EOS300 too - my 350 is doing the job though. Just need to get the necessary together for a proper lens for it - the kit lens is pretty shoddy unless you stop it down.

If Warren gets the 101 through the MoT on Monday for less than budget I might just call into Harrisons on the way home! London Road is a very dangerous part of the world - Warren's place, Martyn's place and a very good camera shop all literally within a stones throw of each other.

I know Martyn's place & London road, didn't know there was a good camera shop there!

I'll have a snifter next time I'm down Sheffield (I can see it costing me brass now!!)

I'm not slagging the EOS at all, it just wasn't for me! The D70 is just superb from the box, even the

The good thing about digital SLR's is the fact they just capture the moment so well compared to a compact that has to 'think' before it captures, giving time for the moment to pass! The only down side is the size!

My mate & neighbour just bought the new Sony D7 (I think) tiny little 5.1mp super compact & to be fair it gives good results & it is *tiny* great for carrying about etc. Worth a look for a second camera at £250 it's not silly money either!

Mandy has one of the Casio Exilims (before they lost the plot and went big with zoom lenses etc). Credit card size, about 8mm thick, virtually no shutter lag. Brilliant 2mp party camera - unless she breaks it I don't think we'll replace it until the mobile phone cameras come of age.

A leaky axle? feckidy, and a flat tyre? hmm, tubes all-round by the way.
